Patrick Lo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NETGEAR, commented, “NETGEAR ended 2020 with another outstanding quarter, delivering 45% revenue growth and 11% non-GAAP operating margin. In a year without parallel, the NETGEAR team rallied against countless obstacles to continually surpass our expectations while remaining efficient to produce strong operating leverage on our growth. At the heart of the strong demand for our products are families working and learning from home – these families need to solve for high speed, high-capacity bandwidth that stretches to every corner of the home. This is fueling rapid growth of a new premium segment that is defined by a WiFi 6 mesh system with tri-band architecture. At the forefront of this technology, NETGEAR has commanding share in this segment. We continued our pace of adding new subscribers, which were up by 68,000 in Q4 to 437,000 paid subscribers, and far surpassed our goal for the year. As a long-tenured market leader NETGEAR will continue to innovate to deliver the leading products and services that customers increasingly demand.”

Mr. Lo continued, “We sustained our strong momentum in Q4 in Connected Home and delivered more than 60% year over year growth in both the retail and service provider channels. On the SMB side, we continued to execute on our strategy to offer high performance ProAV and work-from-home solutions, with leading edge WiFi access points plus plug-and-play switches. This produced another quarter of strong sequential growth, coming in at 16%, and a return to year over year growth. We feel NETGEAR is on a great trajectory and are excited about 2021.”

Bryan Murray, Chief Financial Officer of NETGEAR, added, “We had another impressive quarter of strong cash flow, generating $46.1 million in cash from operations in the fourth quarter. Preserving strong liquidity and generating cash are paramount as the pandemic continues into 2021.”

Business Outlook

Mr. Murray continued, “As supply is expected to remain constrained, and with an anticipated sequential step-down in sales to service providers, our first quarter net revenue is expected to be in the range of $300 million to $315 million. Our GAAP operating margin for the first quarter is expected to be in the range of 4.5% to 5.5%, and non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be in the range of 8.0% to 9.0%. Our GAAP tax rate is expected to be approximately 28%, and our non-GAAP tax rate is expected to be 24.5% for the first quarter of 2021. While we are confident in our ability to provide guidance at this time, we do so with the caveat that considerable uncertainty remains in the market due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and should unforeseen events occur, in particular related to transportation delays in Southern California where our main distribution center is located, our actual results could differ from the foregoing guidance.”

A reconciliation between the Business Outlook on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in the following table:

		Three months ending
		March 28, 2021
		Operating Margin Rate				Tax Rate
GAAP		4.5% - 5.5%				28.0%
Estimated adjustments for1:
Amortization of intangibles		0.5%				-
Stock-based compensation expense		2.3%				-
Restructuring and other charges		0.7%				-
Non-GAAP tax adjustments		-				(3.5)%
Non-GAAP		8.0% - 9.0%				24.5%
1 Business outlook does not include estimates for any currently unknown income and expense items which, by their nature, could arise late in a quarter, including: litigation reserves, net; acquisition-related charges; impairment charges; restructuring and other charges and discrete tax benefits or detriments that cannot be forecasted (e.g., windfalls or shortfalls from equity awards or items related to the resolution of uncertain tax positions). New material income and expense items such as these could have a significant effect on our guidance and future GAAP results.

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

To supplement our unaudited selected financial data presented on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain charges, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP other operating expenses, net, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP other income (expense), net, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share. These supplemental measures exclude adjustments for amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, separation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, gain/loss on investments, net, and adjust for effects related to non-GAAP tax adjustments. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We compensate for the limitations of non-GAAP financial measures by relying upon GAAP results to gain a complete picture of our performance.

In calculating non-GAAP financial measures, we exclude certain items to facilitate a review of the comparability of our operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in our view, related to our ongoing operational performance. We use non-GAAP measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, for comparison with forecasts and strategic plans, and for benchmarking performance externally against competitors. In addition, management’s incentive compensation is determined using certain non-GAAP measures. Since we find these measures to be useful, we believe that investors benefit from seeing results “through the eyes” of management in addition to seeing GAAP results. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by offering:

• the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our on-going operating results;
• the ability to better identify trends in our underlying business and perform related trend analyses;
• a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business; and
• an easier way to compare our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of competitors that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The following are explanations of the adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures, as well as the reasons for excluding them in the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures:

Amortization of intangibles consists primarily of non-cash charges that can be impacted by, among other things, the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. We consider our operating results without these charges when evaluating our ongoing performance and forecasting our earnings trends, and therefore exclude such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that the assessment of our operations excluding these costs is relevant to our assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of our competitors.

Stock-based compensation expense consists of non-cash charges for the estimated fair value of stock options, restricted stock units, performance shares and shares under the employee stock purchase plan granted to employees. We believe that the exclusion of these charges provides for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to peer companies due to the varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types. In addition, we believe it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact stock-based compensation expense has on our operating results.

Other items consist of certain items that are the result of either unique or unplanned events, including, when applicable: separation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, restructuring and other charges, litigation reserves, net, and gain/loss on investments, net. It is difficult to predict the occurrence or estimate the amount or timing of these items in advance. Although these events are reflected in our GAAP financial statements, these unique transactions may limit the comparability of our on-going operations with prior and future periods. The amounts result from events that often arise from unforeseen circumstances, which often occur outside of the ordinary course of continuing operations. Therefore, the amounts do not accurately reflect the underlying performance of our continuing business operations for the period in which they are incurred.

Non-GAAP tax adjustments consist of adjustments that we incorporate into non-GAAP measures in order to provide a more meaningful measure on non-GAAP net income. We also believe providing financial information with and without the income tax effects relating to our non-GAAP financial measures provides our management and users of the financial statements with better clarity regarding the on-going performance of our business.

1 The per share reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP may not aggregate due to both calculations utilizing a different share basis. The GAAP net loss per diluted share calculation uses a lower share count as it excludes potentially dilutive shares included in the non-GAAP net income per diluted share calculation.
